Description
Xufei An and co-authors stir a conducting polymer into a battery electrolyte to free up lithium ions. Solid polymer electrolytes are safe but sluggish, and their contact layers crumble. The added polymer's spread out electrons act like countless tiny capacitors. That raises the material's dielectric strength, prying lithium salts apart so ions flow faster.
The same chemistry speeds the breakdown of salt anions into a sturdy, mineral rich skin on the lithium. Cells ran from deep freeze to warm room conditions. One pairing cycled over thirteen thousand times at high rate. The authors claim a design space that plain polymers could not reach.
